#457 - Chapter 457 Scent
Inside the Red Cloud Base.
Watching the Green Origin people unload two split air conditioners from the heavy truck, the Red Cloud people were once again dumbfounded!
"This... this is too exaggerated, right?!"
"Even our leaders don't have this kind of treatment!"
"Do they think our electricity here is very sufficient, enough for them to run the air conditioners?"
Some Red Cloud personnel whispered among themselves.
If seeing the actions of these Green Origin people just now wasn't a problem, the appearance of these air conditioners has surprised quite a few people.
They thought the other party was going to use their base's electricity.
But the Red Cloud Base simply can't afford such a luxury!
"Stop talking nonsense! Watch your mouths! Just watch quietly!"
Xiong Sen shouted in a low voice, stopping his own people from muttering.
He didn't think the Green Origin people would do useless work.
Because when he went to the Green Origin Base yesterday, he could see that this base was different from other forces. They had resources there that were unimaginable!
These people who came to help them shouldn't deliberately take such advantage.
The Red Cloud Base also has some electricity, but usually they only dare to turn on the lights at night for defense, and the remaining non-essentials are not used easily.
Even if the solar energy is sufficient recently, it is impossible to satisfy the level of turning on fans. If it's hot, just wear less and fan yourself, right?
Fuel-powered generators are even more impossible. Fuel is so precious that it must be used on the road to find supplies, and their base's fuel is already running low. Even if they survive the New Sheep City crisis, they will have to worry about this matter later.
"Look! They brought their own generators!"
Sure enough, as more things were moved out of the heavy truck, they saw two small diesel generators.
This is normal.
The Green Origin people are indeed generating their own electricity for their own use.
Naturally, that's how it is. Zhong Yu and the others never thought of using Red Cloud's electricity. When they traveled, they obtained the leader's permission to carry two air conditioners and generators with them. Qin Jin wouldn't be stingy with this bit of fuel for the combat troops.
After all, the weather has been extremely hot recently, and if the team members don't sleep well at night, it will affect their combat effectiveness.
Moreover, this trip may not be something that can be completed in a day or two.
Not to mention the core members, who can enjoy this kind of benefit every night in the main base.
But the level 3 personnel from the branch base who are here as external cooperation combat team members don't have this benefit in the base. They can only blow fans in the branch base dormitory at most. Now, they are also staring at the unloaded air conditioning equipment with bright eyes.
They can enjoy it tonight!
Zhong Yu continued to direct, letting the team members move all the food and supplies needed for this trip into the small building. It took a long time to get things settled initially.
Time unknowingly came to the evening.
They set off at 9 am and arrived here in the afternoon. The time was basically like this.
Zhong Yu didn't avoid suspicion, taking advantage of this time to chat with the Red Cloud cadres to inquire about news, and continued to patrol and inspect here to see if there were any defensive loopholes that needed to be patched up.
Regardless of who is the owner here.
"You need to add an isolation area here. It's too simple now. You won't even know if someone who has been scratched by a zombie sneaks in!"
"The lights on your walls are not enough, and there is no alarm device. It would be dangerous if a mutated zombie sneaks up next to you!"
"You don't even have night vision devices and thermal imagers?? Wouldn't it be over if the enemy sneaks up on you!? No, no!"
"Also, it's best to pile more cement here to increase the strength, or weld some steel plates! Your defense is too weak. If you encounter 100,000 zombies, it will definitely be difficult to stop them!"
"What!? Multiple people living together!? Wouldn't it be a big problem if someone died in the middle of the night!? Quickly find a way to separate them!"
"Also, you need to hoard more water! This amount is not enough at all!"
"You haven't cleared out a few outposts around the base!? Wouldn't you be waiting to have your necks wiped if a large number of enemies sneak up to the gate before you discover them??"
"And your weapons are only firearms? Haven't you thought of making some bows and arrows or javelins yourself? Those are also quite useful! You can even take them back after using them!"
Zhong Yu kept walking around the Red Cloud Base, while constantly spouting out various unreasonable things he noticed.
Yan Hong and Xiong Sen, who were behind him, felt their heart rates getting faster and faster as they listened!
At the same time, the two also saw surprise in each other's eyes!
This Green Origin captain who came to support them is not a straw bag!
He has real skills!
The expression on Xiong Sen's sealed face twitched slightly, but he still suppressed his shock with his strong willpower and took out paper and pen to silently record it.
Some of the suggestions made by this Green Origin captain are very good!
Why didn't they think of them before!?
They must quickly find the people in the base to find a way to make up for it. Even if they can't do what this Green Origin captain said, they must at least come up with a slightly worse alternative solution.
The Red Cloud personnel didn't go out today, because they are going to face a major disaster tomorrow, and everyone is not in the mood to look for supplies anymore.
Many of them stared at these few who were walking around the base pointing fingers.
Time unknowingly came to six or seven o'clock.
The sun, which had been showing its power all day, was finally about to get off work and be replaced by the arrival of the night.
Zhong Yu and other Green Origin team members had already completed the initial preparations and returned to the small building to rest.
Many large and small cooking smoke began to rise within the Red Cloud Base.
It's dinner time.
Their personnel took out their respective foods and began to cook and eat.
The Red Cloud Base implements a semi-inclusive system.
That is, they only provide a bowl of thin porridge or thin grains once a day, not much, just enough to keep people from starving to death.
The rest requires personnel to go out and find supplies themselves.
Participating in the base's search team or defense team can also get a certain subsidy.
Their model is also a form used by many base shelters, which is considered a more humane base.
Many people finished eating wild vegetables, bark, and roots, and began to cool off outdoors boredly.
It's not so hot outdoors after the sun goes down, and there is an occasional breeze, which is always better than the stuffy and hot environment indoors.
And you can also chat with other neighbors.
In the apocalypse, there is no electronic entertainment, so moving your lips is the most economical and cheap entertainment activity.
Suddenly.
A little boy who was cooling off outdoors twitched his nose, widened his eyes and looked around to confirm, and finally locked his eyes on the small building not far away that was emitting light!
"Dad! Dad! Do you smell a fragrance!? It's the smell of chicken stew with mushrooms! I smell the smell of chicken stew with mushrooms!!"
He looked at the Green Origin residence building with disbelief, and dragged Xiong Sen, who was the deputy leader of the base, towards it!
He was actually Xiong Sen's son!
He seemed to have discovered something amazing!
